Background items

2,049 labels

Launch agents, launch daemons, login items and package receipts that Mac apps declare: which apps declare each one, where it usually lives and how to turn it off.

A label is only a name: several apps can share one, and malware can copy one. These are what apps declare in their Homebrew definitions, not proof that an item on your Mac belongs to them.
